Join us for our Q&A session with Hannah Twiggs, Food and Drink Editor, The Independent
About this Event

"Looking to land coverage in the Independent’s food and drink section? Join us on 19th February as we sit down with editor Hannah Twiggs. Having interviewed Michelin-starred chefs, covered government reports on nutrition and dispatched from top food destinations across the world, we’ll be asking Hannah about what makes a pitch shine for her. We’ll get into:

  • How to make your email stand out in a crowded inbox
  • What angles are right (and not quite right) for the Independent’s 20m strong audience
  • The stories she's looking for more of in 2026"


Seats are £50 and are limited to 50 PRs. Please submit a question for the journalists on the booking form – attendees will have the chance to ask follow ups during the session. Book now if you want to join us.
